REPORT IF YOU SEE, LISTEN OR KNOW THAT SOME WOMEN ARE SUFFERING VIOLENCE.
We often think that the denunciation maybe will not affect anything, but be aware that the presence of an authority can often prevent this violence from continuing at the exact moment or in the future.
So report it, you can save a life.
